de Sevigny,

I bear no bitterness about the fact that you got the CoPS job rather than me. However, 
as one who is also passionately committed to justice, allow me to offer a pointer or 
two with regard to the current troubles.

I think that the standard procedure in all criminal investigations these days should 
be to arrest Alain de Mylcandonai. As the rumours around Paris show, he has been at or 
near the centre of all problems in France for years.

Furthermore, through my own experience on the wrong side of the dock, I have seen, 
from Mylcandonai's own example, that such formalities as evidence, witnesses or even a 
coherent charge are not required to secure a conviction. All that is needed is a 
succession of unconvincing disguises, a funny voice, and a willingness to embarass 
oneself in public.

Grosscanard

P.S. Given my commitment to justice and the law, I would be willing to offer myself as 
a special investigator on this case. I am prepared to take on the weary task of 
visiting bawdy houses, knocking shops, brothels, dens of vice, sinks of iniquity, 
houses of ill-repute and the like in the cause of discovering the truth. I would 
expect no pay, although, for the sake of keeping the books straight, I would of course 
submit an expenses claim.
